Answer 3

i would say you have gained muscle weight, but dont go by the scales as you probably have less body fat now

Answer 4

Exercise even more and eat less fat.Do some yoga.

Answer 5

Weight lifting makes your muscles bigger, doesn't it?

Mucles way more than fat so you are probably losing your fat and gaining muscle. That is all there is to it.

Answer 6

Muscle weighs more than fat.  You actually can be in better shape, but weigh more.  As you build muscle and decrease fat, your weight will change.  Sounds like you are doing just fine.  Keep it up.  Take your measurements as well as stepping on the scale.  It will give you a better indication of how you are doing.  

Answer 7

most probably you are gaining weight, because you are building muscle mass... limit the proteins

Answer 8

Answer 9

You need to change lifestyle, eating habits, and do some exercises/ yoga. First of all you do ten sun solutions and there after lye down on floor or hard bed and make zero by rotating your both the legs in clock wise and anti-clockwise direction and do Urdhvahastottanasana Ek Pad Utanasana and Pawan mukta asanas. Stop taking junk and spicy food, deep-fry food, processed food, ice cream, high fat diets chocolates, sweets, wafers and high carbohydrate food like potatoes, rice and pasta as these items lose nutrition balance and causes deposition of excess fat on body. Eating too much than the required amount of dietary intake may also cause obesity. I f you do not know to do the asanas you can take the help of ebooks for other system for loosing weight and diet supplements. You may visit web site in source-

Answer 10

you do "too much" weightlifting...your muscles grow and muscles grow more than fat does...if you attempt to lose weight you should also not only take into consideration your weight but also your fat percentage....if you measured it before your diet, you'll see that your fat percentage went down !!!!!
